Save and manage multiple independent Hermes installations (e.g. Workstation, Linux Server, Cloud VM). - Independent WebSocket connections, concurrent state management, and isolated reconnect loops. - Individual host health badges: `Online`, `Connecting`, `Offline`, `Auth Expired`. 2. **Unified Sessions & Context Synchronization**: - Create one logical conversation (`UnifiedSession`) that spans multiple physical Hermes hosts. - Seamlessly switch active execution hosts mid-conversation via the top-bar dropdown. - **Delta Context Sync**: Injects conversation history and task context to newly attached hosts automatically without full-history re-transmission or secret leakage. - **Host Attribution**: Every response bubble, tool card, and thinking trace displays its originating host badge (e.g. `[Office PC]`, `[Linux Server]`). - **Non-Blocking Host Switching**: If Host #1 is executing a long tool or computation and you switch to Host #2, Host #1 completes its work in the background and commits results into the shared timeline. 3. **Isolated Host Security & Approvals**: - Host-scoped credentials stored securely in Android Keystore (`hostId -> tokens`). - **Host-Targeted Approvals & Clarifications**: Dangerous command approvals (`approval.request`) and sudo prompts route back strictly to the exact host runtime and native session that emitted them. 4. **Local Persistence (Room DB)**: - Full offline caching for `UnifiedSession`, `HostSessionBinding`, and `UnifiedMessage`. - Raw native session browser for inspecting individual host histories. --- ## ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Hermes Host Setup ### Windows Host ```powershell hermes serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9119 ``` With OAuth / GitHub Auth: ```powershell $env:HERMES_AUTH_REQUIRED="true" $env:HERMES_AUTH_PROVIDERS="github" $env:HERMES_AUTH_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID="" $env:HERMES_AUTH_GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET="" hermes serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9119 ``` ### Linux Host ```bash export HERMES_AUTH_REQUIRED="true" export HERMES_AUTH_PROVIDERS="github" export HERMES_AUTH_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID="" export HERMES_AUTH_GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET="" hermes serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9119 ``` --- ## ๐Ÿงช Testing & Verification Run the full automated test suite: ```powershell .\gradlew.bat testDebugUnitTest ``` Run Android Lint: ```powershell .\gradlew.bat lintDebug ``` Assemble Debug APK: ```powershell .\gradlew.bat assembleDebug ```
